Petar Kočić – JAZAVAC PRED SUDOM PRIPOVETKE
Petar Kočić rođen je u bosanskom selu Stričići, na Zmijanju i u svom delu daje potpunu sliku krajiških pejzaža i teškog života bosanskog seljaka. On je ujedno pesnik sirovog života i ljubavi koja je u njegovom delu glavna pokretačka snaga ali i zla kob. U drami Jazavac pred sudom u liku prkosnog seljaka Davida Štrpca opevani su svi poniženi i ugnjeteni koji uzalud traže pravdu. Iako u humorističkom okviru, ova drama je u stvari oštra satira i kritika vlasti.
Petar S. Maksimović – Proizvodnja povrća u zaštićenom prostoru
Stalni napredak u ishrani ljudi ima za posledicu povećanu potrošnju povrća, ali i strože zahteve u pogledu njihovog kvaliteta. Naučni radnici čine velike napore da udovolje ne samo potrošačima povrtarskih proizvoda u pogledu kvaliteta, stvarajući bolje sorte i hibride već i da za proizvođače stalno usavršavaju tehnologije proizvodnje kako bi se sa što manje ulaganja dobila rentabilna proizvodnja.
PETE DEXTER – THE PAPERBOY
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
“An eerie and beautiful novel . . . Its secrets continue to reveal themselves long after the book has been finished.”—The New York Times Book Review
The sun is rising over Moat County, Florida, when Sheriff Thurmond Call is found on the highway, gutted like an alligator. A local redneck is tried, sentenced, and set to fry. Then Ward James, hotshot investigative reporter for the Miami Times, returns to his rural hometown with a death row femme fatale who promises him the story of the decade. She’s armed with explosive evidence, aiming to free—and meet—her convicted “fiancé.” With Ward’s disillusioned younger brother Jack as their driver, they barrel down Florida’s back roads and seamy places in search of The Story, racing flat out into a shocking head-on collision between character and fate as truth takes a back seat to headline news.
Now a major motion picture directed by Lee Daniels starring Matthew McConaughey, Zac Efron, David Oyelowo, and Macy Gray, with John Cusack and Nicole Kidman

PHILIP M. MARGOLIN – WILD JUSTICE
It seems a serial killer is at large and the modus operandi points to the murderer being a medic. Vincent Cardoni, a brilliant but unpopular surgeon, is suspected and certain pieces of evidence found in his apartment make the police believe they have a solid case. But the trial collapses when an officer lies on oath and Cardoni disappears, having firmly stated his belief that he was set up by his estranged wife, Justine, who is also a surgeon.
A few years later another death occurs, the body being found in exactly the same circumstances as the previous victims, but this time Justine is under suspicion and when her defence attorney discovers she has been 'widowed' twice before in suspicious circumstances her proclaimed innocence begins to look very shaky - until other killings are revealed, killings when both she and her ex-husband were known to be elsewhere. So who is the murderer?
PIERRE BOULLE – DESPERATE GAMES
Long before Battle Royale or The Hunger Games, the author of The Planet of the Apes imagined a world governed by science and brutality gone mad in this long-neglected, dystopian sci-fi classic, now in a new translation
Despairing at the state of world degeneration, a group of the world's most renowned intellectuals form the new Scientific World Government, aiming to put the world to rights. Elected into power, they quickly start making changes for the better, eliminating world hunger and cancer, encouraging scientific thought, and banning frivolous entertainment. But while congratulating themselves on a job well done, they fail to notice that actually, people are not happy. The suicide rate has sky-rocketed and, strangely, it turns out the public wants a little risk and conflict in their lives. So to cater to the masses, the Department of Psychology forms a plan: they will stage an entertainment show the likes of which the world has never seen before. It starts with gladiatorial style battles, bloodthirsty and brutal, where the victors become celebrities of unseen proportions, and quickly escalates into entire historical battle re-enactments involving chemical warfare and mass destruction. The Scientific World Government has unleashed a monster. What has the world let itself in for?
